As the dust starts to settle and a modicum of normality returns to Newtown and its neighbors after the Dec. 14 shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School, one of the pressing issues is "How do we protect our school children?" If we're prepared to have a real dialogue on this subject, I'd like to highlight what one community in Colorado did a decade ago.

On Dec. 26, columnist/author Michelle Malkin published a blog entry at michellemalkin.com entitled, "The gift of self-empowerment," based on an email from Town Councilman Joe Cascarelli from Westcliffe, Colo. I'll offer an abridged version of that post here.
